Author Topic: 500 S&W Loads (Read 398 times)

The big brown truck dropped off my latest accessory barrel order yesterday. I must say I'm pretty impressed with H&R's turn around this time. I sent the reciever in June 3rd and received it back June 30 with 4 barrels including the 500 S&W that H&R was still waiting to recieve when I sent the action. I was wondering if anyone has a good load for the 500 S&W. I have some 330 and 375 cast and some 325 jacketed bullets this is my first 500 so I was hoping to get some info on loads that have worked well for others.

The latest Lyman Pistol and Revolver book has a bunch of loads (besides the ubiquitous Hodgdon data) I've not seen elsewhere. Otherwise scout around on the 'net. -- there's stuff out there.

Thanks, I'll look into the lyman pistol and revolver book. I got some load data from friends shooting revolvers so I'll give them a shot. Hopefully I can get out to the range soon these tropical storms are cutting down on my range time.
